Minnesota Wild Sign Mikael Granlund and Ryan Carter
Why are these three hugging? They're all getting paychecks from the Wild this season! - Brace Hemmelgarn-USA TODAY SportsA quick recap of two more of the Wild's signings today.
The Minnesota Wild announced that they have signed Center Mikael Granlund, as well as Center/Wing Ryan Carter.
Mikael Granlund, 2 Years, $6 Million
After a disappointing season wherein he sustained a wrist injury and his scoring regressed, Restricted Free Agent Granlund wasn't in line for quite the payday he would've liked. At the other side of the negotiating table, the Wild were nervous about committing long-term dollars to a player who hasn't proven he can stay healthy or give First Line Center™ production.
